I fkn knew eza would be at the top of this list.

E: I can't talk, though. Here are my aliases:

alias    ls='eza --time-style="+%Y-%m-%d" --group-directories-first --hyperlink --colour=never -hlF always --icons --git'
alias    ll='eza --time-style="long-iso" --group-directories-first --no-permissions --hyperlink --colour=never -hoalF always --icons --git'
alias     l='eza --time-style=relative --group-directories-first --hyperlink --colour=auto -hlF=always --icons --no-permissions --no-user'

I'm running Linux Mint, I installed eza, which is nice but the icons are not showing up correctly.

Do you know how to get them to show correctly, I installed 'nerd fonts' but I'm not sure I got the correct one.

Don't worry. It works fine in the regular terminal, it is just quake that is giving me issues.

you have to install a nerd font i guess. nerd-fonts dot com.

All good now.

It is a problem with guake.

I didn't install anything special, just used apt (on ubuntu), like sudo apt install eza. Looks like I'm using the font DejaVuSansMono.

What terminal/emulator are you using?
